WATCH: First Range Test of the All-New Springfield XDM 10mm Pistol

With an appropriate date of 10/10, Springfield Armory just released its brand new XDM 10mm pistol.

Springfield’s new 10mm pistol includes two configurations — one with a 4.5-inch barrel and one with a 5.25-inch barrel, respectively.

FIRST LOOK: The Springfield XDM 10mm Pistol Has Arrived

“Both pistols handled the recoil well, in part, due to the specific recoil spring developed just for the 10mm. I also appreciated the ergonomics of the XDM’s full-size grip,” Combat Handguns author Rob Garrett said on the range. “Muzzle rise was certainly more significant in the shorter gun, but not unpleasant and controllable using the proper grip.”

“The weather prevented us from formal accuracy testing. However, we did wear out an IPSC vitals steel target from 15, 25, and even 50 yards,” he added.
